If you want [general purpose], you know where to get it. seems to
be the period that ends all such discussion.

I agree with Steve.
I like the community approach to this matter: if plan9 doesn't have
what you need, do it yourself; if you do something that might be
useful for others share it and see what happens.
Being a newbie myself I find very hard to write my own utilities, but
that's a good way to learn

I don't agree. I think that more than one person can be involved in
any given project.

Do it yourself refers to the community doing anything they need. Most
things are so trivial that one or two people can do it. That doesn't

True, if anyone feels that a project is too big for them then
by all means put a shout out on the list and see if anyone there wants to
help.

On one side, you have code (result) and consistency; on the
other side, you have _inhumanity_ since you have increasing of the
entropy that is disorder: order is unnatural, and is the mark of human
activity. Open source seems very natural in this sense: the
bazaar...

I am utterly depressed that this pedestrian crap can so easily get a

Still for TeX and al., the computation is done with tetras (32 bits),
and one of the variable thing to set is the C name for this tetra
(the identifier integer is used and is defined afterwards in the C
code).
long is guaranteed to be at least 32 bits by C89. So this could do,
but could be a

haven't looked at the sources, but I guess it is not the case for ken-cc
suite).
2) On a 64 bits (since Charles Forsyth has done work for amd64 at least
on ken-cc, this exists), I imagine long is an octa (64 bits).

with kenc, long === 32 bits even on 64 bit machines; there is no
difference in storage size between long and int.

on 64-bit machines, int and long are 32 bits,
long long (vlong) is 64 bits, just as on 32-bit machines,
but pointers are 64 bits. u.h defines uintptr
as the integer type that will hold a pointer.
u8int, u16int, u32int and u64int are used in device drivers
and elsewhere to declare values (eg, in

hi to all,
i'm a new plan9 user, i just wanted to know how to use my usb in plan9.
because i have a pdf file about plan9 and i would like to read it in plan9
anybody? please help.
thanks in advance,
